Respuesta :

The answer to this question is A. "To what green altar, O mysterious priest, / Lead'st thou that heifer lowing at the skies, / And all her silken flanks with garlands dressed?"

Answer: a. "To what green altar, O mysterious priest, / Lead'st thou that heifer lowing at the skies, / And all her silken flanks with garlands dressed?"

Explanation: Of all options, this is the passage that carries the most words with sensory descriptions, mostly visual ones: we read of a green altar, a priest, a heifer lowing at the skies "dressed" with garlands. All the other options are more concerned with action and discourse than with imagery.
